Faecal specimen containers with transport buffer or medium are single-use devices designed to collect, preserve, and safely transport stool samples for laboratory testing. They help maintain specimen integrity during transit, ensuring accurate diagnostic results for conditions like infections or digestive disorders.
These devices are typically regulated as in vitro diagnostics (IVDs) and are supplied sterile, ready for immediate use. They are not reusable and do not include sampling tools—only the container and preservative medium. Classification and supply vary by jurisdiction, but they are generally intended for clinical or diagnostic laboratory settings.
